Can the FoodSaver bags go directly in the freezer (without being put inside another freezer bag)?

I'm not sure what you are asking. Once contents are properly cooled (or flash frozen) they can be placed in a FoodSaver bag, sealed and frozen. If that doesn't answer your question let me know.

Depends on how long you plan to have then in the freezer. I have used the standard bags for short term storage like a month or so, but if it is going to be stored for several months I would go with the freezer bags.

Yes, they go directly into the freezer. All items keep really well, I've stored meat for months with no frost build up or freezer burn.

The Vacuum Zipper bags and containers are designed for refrigerator items, such as deli meats and cheeses, that you access everyday. We do not recommend using them for long-term freezer storage. The FoodSaver heat seal bags are ideal for the freezer.

I have not tried it like that, but I don't see why not, as long as you didn't fill it to full, and it didn't freeze to the bottom of your freezer. I am using mine right now, as I have a frozen shoulder, but I have ice in it. Sorry I couldn't be more help. It is a really nice bag.

No longer a problem with current food storage bags. Use ziplock freezer bags, they are designed for long term food storeage and are stable at sous vide temps.

If they are already frozen, I don't see why not. They would, however, be open at the bottom. Just my opinion, though.

I haven't used mine in the freezer but would if I needed to. Like any plastic container, if it has been in the freezer and it falls to the floor, I imagine it would break into pieces. I am assuming you want to sort packages into it and I think it would be great for that.

Yes you can. I suggest double seal on both ends. Also I suggest food saver bags, some other brands are just not up there in quality. The price difference is well worth it.

I have not used them on freezer bags, so I would prefer not to say one way or the other.

Hi David! Yes, you can store food in these bags! Since the Big Bags are made of a thicker, heavy duty plastic, than the smaller freezer bags are made of, I don't see why not. Can I use Ziploc brand Big Bags to store food? Yes. Ziploc brand Big Bags can be used to store food, but they should not be used in the microwave or oven. The above entry is listed under the FAQ section of http://www.ziploc.com/Products/Pages/BigBags.aspx?SizeName=XL Hope this helps!

Sure, you could use it in the fridge but it wouldn't work so well. It's designed to keep your frozen flat bags and keep them upright so that you can put the new bags in the back and take from the front. While you can lock that feature out if you had soft non-frozen bags I think it wouldn't work right and pulling soft bags may have them sticking to one another etc. Honeysuckle bags do fit, these are the ones I use, but they go in at an angle. I have a system where I freeze them flat stacked on top of one another in a glass Tupperware first then I put them in the organizer.

I have use them for food that I have placed in the freezer without any problems!

Definitely. Just the same. These are less expensive and just as good (or maybe better) than FoodSaver bags.

They are not air tight - liquids seep out if you turn them on the side. I use them in the frig and for pantry storage but have never used them in the freezer.

No, these containers are not for freezing. You would use the foodsaver bags for that.

Absolutely NOT. These bags are not suitable for food or perishables. They are not air tight.

Yes but they don't seal very well so if you are going to freeze for more than a couple of days, freezer burn will most likely occur.

Yes. I pump directly into the bags and then freeze. I label a gallon size freezer bag and store the milk in there. I suppose you can also wrote on the bags with a permanent marker.
